This is to certify that l was treated for
left inguinal rupture of twenty years.
standing by Prof, Barker, of Minneapo-
lis, on Oct. Z, 1886. Before receiving his
treatment my rupture would go down
into the scrotum as large as my fist. 1t
would go down even though | way lying
on my back. l had tried many kinds
of truSseS, but none of them would hold
my rupture. | continued to grow worse
with them all. Since receiving his treat
ment my rupture has been constantly
restrained, and now at the end of five
months | can take my support off and
stand upon my feet without sign of the
rupture appearing, and last Sabbath
left the support off all day

business is that of a millwright, and /
am constantly lifting heavy loads and
climbing ladders, and have been all the
time since receiving treatment. | have
not lost moment of time for reason of
the treatment, but have pursued my
work with confidence and energy, which
could not do before being treated. 1

years, and will answer correspondence

of being entirely cured long be-

commend all who are suffering from
rupture to be treated by Prof. Barker. of

treatment at his hands last May for rup-
ture brought on by jumping off horse
power onto frozen ground or by cough

of these causes combined, and that since
the first treatment the rupture has never
troubled me about coming down, and
that L have never lost day on account

discontinued the treatment entirely, be-
ing fully cured. am 60 years of age. VIII

a grand success, and that it will cure
